"What? You two are really lucky to be alive!"
Are we safe now?
This is somewhat unexpected!
When Lao Liu spoke on the phone, I noticed some changes in his voice.
It seems like if you start drinking there, you might start bragging to people.
I was a little taken aback; you're already drinking at noon.
Before I could ask him anything, I just yelled at him and then asked him why he told us to fend for ourselves.
"You mean this... Haha, aren't you guys already on your own now? Good luck!"
The rest of the journey is up to you to walk.
However, if you manage to come back alive, I will definitely have this guy pick you up!
See you later, see you then!
If possible, I'll treat you to a welcome-back dinner when you come back!
You two are incredibly lucky to be alive!
As Lao Liu spoke on the other end of the phone, he chuckled several times.
Then he said something like "no signal" or "busy" and quickly hung up the phone.
I think we can't count on Old Liu anymore at this point.
If we can survive in this place, I think that would be really good.
Although he didn't mention to us what Blue Armor was like, I could tell he didn't want to come here.
Even for just one trip, he promised the driver an entire taxi. Old Liu couldn't have been rolling in money, could he? He must have his reasons and principles for making money.
Besides, he's just a taxi driver; he doesn't earn much.
I really don't think Old Liu can get much of a salary.
The implication of his words was already very clear.
It's about saving our lives as much as possible; if we can't, there's nothing he can do to help us.
After he hung up the phone, I glanced at the driver in front of me again, and the bearded man gave us a slight smile.
They started to get enthusiastic again.
I think this guy's emotions change way too fast; he's the kind of guy who can turn on a page faster than flipping through a book.
Since he made the driver wait where he was, was he afraid we wouldn't be able to get out?
Yiyi also sensed something was wrong at this moment. He immediately grabbed my arm and asked in a low voice that only the two of us could hear.
"Brother, what does Old Liu mean by that? Is there really danger here?"
I didn't know how to answer the girl, but we were almost there, so we had no choice but to bite the bullet and go.
The driver seemed to have heard us talking, but he didn't explain. He just took a small silver bottle out of his pocket.
This is similar to the small bottle he poured into his mouth in the car earlier, but it looks even more precious.
"This is my treasured energy. If you don't have enough when the time comes, just swallow this."
It might have amazing effects; that depends on your own luck.
I also hope you can come back alive. Old Liu told me that if you don't return after a whole day, I'll leave.
He then demonstrated the product to us, showing how it could enhance bodily functions and expel excess energy from the body in a short period of time.
If you touch those fake corpses with your hands, it can also have a certain repelling effect.
If we just dump this stuff anywhere without saying a word, that would be a more direct effect. Burning the fake corpse's arms and legs shouldn't be a problem.
Hearing him say that immediately put my mind at ease. Ah, so this guy did indeed leave something behind.
Yi Yi did indeed show a slight aversion on her face.
Lei Jijian, with a hint of suspicion, shouted in my mind as well.
"Master, this guy took this thing out, but I don't think it's very useful!"
What if this thing not only doesn't bring us any convenience, but actually harms us? Wouldn't that be terrible?
Don't take it, I suggest you don't take it!
Although that's what Lei Jijian said, I was telling him in my mind that at this point, the driver basically posed no threat to us.
Moreover, he made it very clear that he wanted us to return alive.
That sentiment alone is enough.
I had no reason to refuse, so I nodded and took the bottle.
It is precisely because he gives us this sense of relaxation that, from another perspective, we may also be in a very dangerous situation.
Otherwise, he would have no reason to leave this to us.
Thanks.
I nodded at him, my hand clenched tightly.
"We will get out as soon as possible."
He didn't respond, but continued to lean against the car, then closed his eyes, as if he was about to concentrate on restoring his energy.
I grabbed the girl's hand and immediately headed towards the row of houses he pointed to.
Looking back, the bearded driver was standing there all alone, standing very steadily. As we took two steps away, his beard grew faster and faster, and soon it had grown into a full beard again.
Watching this scene, I was truly filled with emotion.
There are indeed quite a few oddities in this shallow layer.
I think there are very few people who can do this, or rather, this guy has reached a level that makes him one of the top figures in this field.
I didn't say anything more, just said goodbye to the bearded man, waved to him, and turned to walk towards the Shenluopan House.
The ground beneath our feet was covered with loose stones, which crunched underfoot, making each step feel like we were heading into a dangerous place.
Both the girl and I felt quite heavy-hearted.
The hovercar remained behind us without making a sound.
Just as we were about to turn the corner, I looked back again. At that moment, Luo Xian with the mustache opened the car door, got in, closed his eyes, and then slammed them shut again.
I looked at the small gun barrel in my hand, and I wondered why he had just called it a wrist guard.
Does your eye tell a different story than we do?
Yi Yi was also puzzled as she looked at the bearded man.
However, the gun barrel, like the wrist guard from before, was emitting a faint glow.
"Let's hurry, brother..."
The girl spoke slowly, and I knew she was getting anxious. After all, as long as we didn't get to Blue Armor, the contract on our bodies wouldn't be cancelled.
It's even more impossible to extract the energy from the dew-covered branches.
